The optical dielectric function of ZnGeN$_2$ is calculated from the interband transitions using the energy bands calculated in the quasiparticle self-consistent (QS)$G\hat W$ method using two different levels of approximation: the…

We carry out a detailed theoretical study of the electronic and optical properties of bulk and monolayer bismuth triiodide (BiI$_{3}$), a layered metal halide, using the ab initio GW+BSE scheme with a full spinorial formulation. We discuss…

While the basic principles and limitations of conventional solar cells are well understood, relatively little attention has gone toward maximizing the potential efficiency of photovoltaic devices based on shift currents. In this work, we…

Models of organic bulk heterojunction photovoltaics which include the effect of spatially varying composition of donor/acceptor materials are developed and analyzed. Analytic expressions for the current-voltage relation in simplified cases…

We combine linear and non-linear optical spectroscopy at 4K with ab initio calculations to study the electronic bandstructure of MoSe2 monolayers. In 1-photon photoluminescence excitation (PLE) and reflectivity we measure a separation…

Iron chalcogenide superconductors are multi-band systems with strong electron correlations. Here we use angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to study band dependent correlation effects in single-layer FeSe/Nb:BaTiO3/KTaO3, a new iron…

We show that electron correlations control the photophysics of defects in SiC through both renormalization of the quasiparticle bandstructure and exciton effects. We consider the carbon vacancy, which is a well-identified defect with two…

Biased bilayer graphene (BBG) is a variable band gap semiconductor, with a strongly field-dependent band gap of up to $300 \, \text{meV}$, making it of particular interest for graphene-based nano-electronic and -photonic devices. The…

Polarization dependent photocurrent spectra are measured on a (001) $\beta$-Ga$_{2}$O$_{3}$ Schottky photodetector, where the linear polarization of light is rotated within the ab plane. Three spectral peaks at 4.92 eV, 5.15 eV, and 5.44 eV…

Photogalvanic effect (PGE) occurs in materials with non-centrosymmetric structures when irradiated by linearly or circularly polarized light. Here, using non-equilibrium Green's function combined with density functional theory (NEGF-DFT),…

Layered quasi-two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), which can be readily made in ultrathin films, offer excellent opportunities for studying how dimensionality affects electronic structure and physical properties. Among…

We present an alternative methodology for calculating the quasi-particle energy, energy loss, and optical spectra of a molecule deposited on graphene or a metallic substrate. To test the accuracy of the method it is first applied to the…

We present a theoretical study of the shift current in a noncentrosymmetric polytype of graphitic BC$_2$N. We find that the photoconductivity near the fundamental gap is strongly anisotropic due to the vanishing of particular tensor…

The surface band bending tunes considerably the surface band structures and transport properties in topological insulators. We present a direct measurement of the band bending on the Bi2Se3 by using the bulk sensitive angular-resolved hard…

The study of subtle effects on transport in semiconductors requires high-quality epitaxial structures with low defect density. Using hybrid molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), SrTiO$_3$ films with low-temperature mobility exceeding 42,000…

Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) exhibit novel electrical and optical properties and are emerging as a new platform for exploring 2D semiconductor physics. Reduced screening in 2D results in dramatically enhanced…

We study theoretically transverse photoconductivity induced by circularly polarized radiation, i.e. the photovoltaic Hall effect, and linearly polarized radiation causing intraband optical transitions in two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG).…

We observe a strong peak in the capacitive photocurrent of a MDMO-PPV / PCBM bulk heterojunction solar cell for excitation below the absorbance threshold energy. Illumination at the peak energy blocks charge capture at other wavelengths,…

We point out that applying the photon energy cut significantly modifies the moments of energy spectrum in B->X_s+gamma decays, with a certain class of effects not accounted for in the mostly used OPE expressions. This leads to a systematic…

Using first-principles GW plus Bethe-Salpeter equation calculations, we identify anomalously strong excitonic effects in several vacancy-ordered double perovskites Cs2MX6 (M = Ti, Zr; X = I, Br). Giant exciton binding energies about 1 eV…
